Description:
In his ongoing series of chess paintings, British artist Tom Hackney translates the chess games of influential artist and self-avowed chess fanatic Marcel Duchamp into vivid geometric abstractions. Tom Hackney (b. 1977, UK) lives and works in London. Painting forms the basis of Hackney?s art practice as a mode, a vessel, and as a narrative. Often generated in response to specific historical material, Hackney?s work incorporates pre-existing forms and structures, which are recreated and replayed as a means of exploring more contemporary stakes. 00Exhibition: Francis M.
